This is a report of a short study done in January and September 2006, to assess the attitudes and behaviour of a group of 'legally aware' cohabitants, former cohabitants and intending cohabitants who had accessed the Living Together Campaign's website.

This report evaluates a) a quasi-compulsory mediation programme and b) a voluntary mediation scheme. The results describe the uptake of mediation, user experiences, and the potential of mediation to offer savings to the justice system.
